DevOps Everything You Need To Know About DevOps DevOps – Development and Operation is a kind of a software development phrase that stands for the combination of philosophies (cultural), tools and practice used in an enterprise delivery of service and applications at a high speed; at the same time improving the product through the integration of the infrastructure management process and the traditional software development. The concept of development and operation was founded on the creation of art of alliance between teams which historically must have functioned in a relative siloes. This practice automates processes between the software development and the IT teams to build, run and release software that is of high reliability with high velocity. How it works Under development and operation is a model referred to as DevOps model - this model gives room for the success of this software. In the model setup, the two teams (development and operations) are merged into a distinct (single) team and the specialists (engineers) work across the whole application lifecycle – from building to testing/running to releasing/deploying then finally into the operation level with range of developed skills not limited to a specific function. In some of the other model of development and operation, quality in product and security of team are assured throughout the application lifespan. Security in this is more focused on the team used as they practices to automate historically slow processes and those in manual format. As well during collaboration, teams use technology stack and tools to help in accomplishing tasks, deploying codes, infrastructure, operating and evolving applications quickly.
Development and Operations – a culture, philosophy, and movement. This software is a strong string between development and operation (as the name implies). It enlarges a changeover in mindset, giving tighter integration and better collaboration as; A culture Culture in development and operation promote the willingness to work and share ideas in teams. This based-culture ensures that the partner developers and the operation staffs of an enterprise accomplish optimal running of software with least possible problems. In addition to this, culture also put focuses on bringing into existence a balanced and faster workflow through the development and the IT operation team. Also, features are deployed into the production processes (without disrupting other services) quickly detect and correct mistakes when found to avoid future problems. A philosophy Principles in development and operations are not based on rigid methodologies and processes rather on a professional principle. Philosophies on these are provided in a way that it helps businesses to unite and breakdown any already established traditional silo. Benefits of Development and Operation (DevOps) To every enterprise that incorporates development and operation to their business practice, they are set to enjoy some benefits from this software. There are multiple layers of benefits from development and operation and can be categorized as: 1.Business benefits
2.Cultural benefits 3.Technical benefits 1. Business benefits: The business benefits are seen as those benefits attached to the organization. There are: •Improvement in collaboration and communication. •Speed in delivery of features •Stability in operating the environment •Increase in time for innovation 2. Cultural benefits These entails: •Greater professional development opportunities •Increase in productivity •Increase in work engagement of employees 3. Technical benefits Benefits mostly enjoyed in the technical sector are: •Faster resolution of problems and mistakes •Less complexity •Consistency in software delivery
Aside from these few mentioned, the major and the biggest advantage of development and operation is speedy deployment. Speedy deployment: the Biggest Advantage of Development and Operations The major reasons for the use of development and operation in company is Speed or Velocity. The speed deployment can be further classified as: Speed - Fast time to production Speed - Fast time to market Speed – Responding to changing market and end-users demands Speed - Fast time to production To meet up to the daily goal of an enterprise, project must be done and moved quickly into the production sector. In this sector for things to work out well particularly in accuracy, development and operation software must be adopted to provide services at an exceptional velocity with faster delivery of the features, continuous integration, and automated deployment (to limit the chances to mistakes at the same time returning with an increase in productivity. When the agile methodology of development and operation is used, the IT team work unswervingly with the customers’ demands and expected taste/ wants. Over time dev and ops allow the organization to deliver software sometimes 10X to 100X faster. And when more organization are successfully deploying, there will be no room for failure. Speed - Fast time to market In the review written by the development and operations professionals, it was mentioned that the chance to bring in a new revenue-generating service online is based on the faster configuration
management, service virtualization, build automation, release automation and many others that can be found in the development and operation tools. These tools work hand to hand to promote continuous delivery and advocate faster service (10X faster). Also, consistency in this practice, gives high quality software and when delivered contribute to market faster. Speed - Responding to changing market and end-users demands The major reason why it is recommended to go for development operations is purposely for the benefits of the customers. Tools and practice that comes with this software allows reduction from whiteboard to production to a phase whereby customers’ needs are responded to with time and also empower a collaborative workforce so as to quickly address customers’ demands. Devsecops Devsecops in application development is a technique introduced basically for SECURITY. This model was designed to identify and access management, improve already existing security - by bringing it closer to IT, security team, and business objectives. Also, it minimizes vulnerability - through vulnerability scanning that is enabled programmatically all through the development and operations (DevOps) life cycle.
